North 花秀直播 Allstars going acoustic at Riley
As kids, Luther and Cody Dickinson of the North 花秀直播 Allstars soaked up the gritty rural blues that surrounded their northwest 花秀直播 home. They flavored it with rock 芒聙聶n芒聙聶 roll influences from their father, a noted Memphis record producer.
Now they芒聙聶ve distilled their music into its acoustic essence, which they芒聙聶ll present as the North 花秀直播 Allstars Acoustic tour, featuring Sharde Thomas and Lightnin' Malcolm, comes to the MSU Riley Center on April 23.
The show starts at 7:30 p.m. A pre-show party with refreshments begins at 6 p.m. in the elegant Grand Lobby.
Both Dickinson brothers are multi-instrumentalists, although typically Luther plays guitar and Cody plays drums. They often explore the retro sounds of vintage and even homemade instruments. Thomas sings and carries on the blues fife tradition of her late grandfather, Otha Turner. Malcolm, a singer and guitarist, frequently performs with the Allstars and learned at the feet of the same old-school bluesmen who inspired the Dickinsons.
The Riley Center audience can expect music as raw and authentic as a 花秀直播 juke joint, performed by musicians who love it heart and soul. Tickets are $39 and $33 at the MSU Riley Center Box Office, which is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Tickets can be purchased online at or by calling the box office at 601-696-2200.
